Wrapping Up the Year

Someday the time will come again when the Composer and I go out for New Year's Eve, but it's hard to imagine at this point! The big kids are all away at a youth group function, but Bella has a small crew of girls here spending the night. Daisy just raced through shouting, "I'm going to play with the big girls! If they will let me!"

I can tell you that there will be some playing of games and some fancy dressing up, and some snacking. And in honor of "wrapping up" the old year, we have themed our food for the evening.


Roast beef, mangoes, red pepper, and spinach lightly dressed in a mustard vinaigrette and served as a wrap sandwich. Ha ha!


And in a minute or two, I'll finish making the crepes stuffed with cream cheese filling and served with raspberry sauce and sour cream. One of the benefits of staying in, for sure.

Happy New Year, everyone!

  7. Your menus always sound delicious.
    Are any of your children picky eaters? Food, social meals, and pickiness all figure into my New Year thoughts.
